[Electrical force] 2 balls hanging from ceiling, angled

In summary, the electric force is equal to the horizontal component of the tension, the weight is equal to the vertical component of the tension, and T=\sqrt{(mg)^2+F_e^2}.

sqrt(4a^2sin^2(10)) = 2*a*sin10

How do you get from 1 - cos^2(10) - sin^2(10) to 2 sin^2(10) ?
1 - cos^2(10) + sin^2(10) = 2sin^10 because cos^2(10) + sin^2(10) = 1
